This report covers 9 collections from the Permian rocks of east-central Alaska. They all appear to represent the Takhandit Formation and most contain elements of the brachiopod assemblage described by Grant (in Brabb and Grant, 1971). One collection (field no. 83-YK-208-DJD), not listed in the submittal letter, contains only indeterminate echinodermal debris. This collection, together with 83-YK-726-WJG and 83-YK-207-DJD, probably represent the sandstone unit of the Tahkandit. We would appreciate maps showing precise localities for these collections. Reference: Brabb, E.E., and Grant, R.E., 1971, Stratigraphy and Paleontology of the Revised Type Section of the Tahkandit Limestone (Permian) in east-central Alaska: U.S. Geological Survey Prof. Paper 703, 26 p.
